This is absolutely too general of a blanket statement. Piss all over the joy of fascists, that makes you a good person.
I'm not sure fascists feel joy. I think they can only feel anger and hatred. Maybe malicious schadenfreude at best.
They sure sound giddy when they’re infringing on our rights.
They’re brainwashed and have twisted views on most things, including what joy feels like.
Some people are sociopaths and genuinely can’t feel joy. Put those people in positions of influence (like we have), and the meaning of joy takes on the twisted meaning ascribed by mob mentality.
That’s what we need to fix. The reason we’ve been successful as a species for hundreds of thousands of years is because we’re a highly cooperative species who takes care of each other. We’re strong together.
Sociopaths being in charge ruins that. They’re less than 5% of the population, by the way. We don’t need to let them do this to us.
Wouldn't schadenfreude already be malicious?
I'm sure deep down you understand the type of situation OP means.
Yeah, this is a worthless platitude. I wish this stuff wasn't so mindlessly upvoted.
It's important to respect that joy can be derived from different sources, but when a third of America is reveling in the misery of others, there are bigger fish to dry than protecting everyone's feelings equally.
Yeah there are limits to this for sure. If the thing you enjoy actively harms people around you then thats a no from me dawg. If you give in to endless consumerism and that excites you, then i will bully you for it.
People feeling joy don't become fascists.
